Thanksgiving Visitors!

Thanksgiving In Pictures
Cooking away. My guess is this was taken before things got a little crazy and stressful...the last 30 minutes were nuts trying to finish and get everything on the table!
Making oreo turkeys...just like we used to, Karee!
Olive coloring her Turkey placemat.
Ella and her turkey leg. Grossed me out, but she really wanted it, and Andrew was happy to help her get it.
Liam's turkey hat. Gobble, gobble!
A couple of days after Thanksgiving we went to a nearby Ostrich farm. Sounds weird, but it was a blast. The kids getting ready to ride the monster truck.
Monster trucks rock!

At one point in the monster truck ride, we stopped and got to go ostrich fishing. You put grapefruite slices onto a pole of sorts, and the ostriches come running. So fun!
After the truck ride, we got to feed some animals. Liam loved this. He wasn't scared at all, and couldn't get enough of it!

Feeding the lorikeets. Can you see the bird on Owen's arm?
The day before the Marshall's left, we drove up to the Ritz Carlton near our house and checked it out. It was amazing.

Thanks for coming guys! We had a blast!

Ostrich farm?!?! I think I would rather have been ANYWHERE but there. There's no telling how many panic attacks I would have had at that place. I am glad there are normal people out there who enjoy places like that! :)
I'm so impressed that you did dinner for everyone. How fun to have Andi and her cute family with you.
Love you and miss you!
